I think I may have found a possible bug here. This reinit_completion() must
happen before we call virtio_i2c_send_reqs(). It is certainly possible (surely
in corner cases) that virtio_i2c_msg_done() may get called right after
virtio_i2c_send_reqs() and before we were able to call reinit_completion(). And
in that case we will never see the completion happen at all.

+	virtqueue_kick(vq);
I may have misread this. Can the actually start before virtqueue_kick() is
called ?


No. It starts when wait_for_completion_timeout is called.

So it should be fine here.


  If not, then completion may be fine where it is.
